JD on Drew Burress (Aug 25, 2026): Drew Burress has really caught my eye and has exploded onto the scene since signing for $7.5mm. He's got very loud tools (5 HR / 4 SB in 77 AB) and exceptional plate discipline (19.5% BB rate) in A ball leading to a 159 wRC+. Of course the same caveats as usual, where it's a small sample size and it's at a very low level of the minors, but these tools look fantastic and seeing them in Sutter Park would be very exciting. He's a big mover for me up my prospect rankings based on this initial performance.
JD on Emmanuel Rodriguez (Jul 30, 2026): Word is out that he is on a rehab assignment right now and I can't wait to see him back in action. I would love for him to get a cup of coffee at the end of the year and begin to build hype around a strong September that gives him and Walker Jenkins a starting role in the 2027 OF.
